<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>A Trinidadian-American writer and activist explores motherhood, migration, identity, nationhood and how it relates to land, imprisonment, and genocide for Black and Indigenous peoples. <p/>Having moved to Copenhagen, Denmark from Brooklyn over 18 years ago, Brown attempts to contextualise her and her son's existence in a post-colonial and supposedly post-racial world where the very machine of so-called progress has been premised upon the demise of her lineage. Through these letters, Brown writes the past into the present - penned from the country that has been declared The Happiest Place in the World - creating a vision that is a necessary alternative to the dystopian one currently being bought and sold.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Lesley-Ann Brown is a Trinidadian-American author, freelance journalist, activist and poet.
